Suppose that a single factor experiment with five levels of the factor has been conducted. There are three replicates and the experiment has been conducted as a complete randomized design. If the experiment had been conducted in blocks (where each replicate is a block), would this reduce the degrees of freedom of the error? If so, by how much? If not, explain why not

The temperature of air decreases as it is compressed by an adiabatic compressor. a)- true b)- false

Apipe with an outside diameter of 15 cm is exposed to an ambient air and surrounding temperature of -20°c. the pipe has an outer surface temperature of 65°c and an emissivity of 0.85. if the rate of heat loss from the pipe surface is 0.95 kw per meter of length, the external convective heat transfer coefficient (h) is: (a) 12.5 w/m"k (b) 18.6 w/mk (c) 23.7 w/mk (d) 27.9 w/mk (e) 33.5 w/mk

Hydraulic fluid with a sg. of 0.78 is flowing through a 1.5 in. i.d. pipe at 58 gal/min. the fluid has an absolute viscosity of 11.8 x 105 lbf-sec/ft2. is the flow laminar, turbulent or within the critical range? give both a numerical reynolds number and a term answer.
